Do your homework and be prepared. A little bit of flash SSD in the right place can go a long way to boost productivity and performance. Get as much SSD storage space capacity as you can afford. Decide whether or not you will you be attaching via PCIe slots, or U.2/8639 or M.2 if NVMe, or SAS, SATA internal or external to a server, or if will you need an external shared storage system. Look beyond the cost per GB. Look at what the performance can do for your workload/applications. It is a good value, in terms of performance and benefit for many environments. However, it is no longer top of the line with newer Optane, 3D XPoint, and other options.
